this is junho and my classmate
1. Are there a lot of obese (very fat) people in the U.S.? In your country? (yes, there are. No, there aren't). Please explain.
- What makes people fat? (answer example: "no exercise" makes people fat)
There are not many obese people in Korea because Korean people
don't like oily food. Korean people eat Kimch everyday, so it makes
them to stay healthy and slim.
- No exercise can make people fat, but I guess what you eat is more
important. If you want to stay away from obesity, you should control
your diet.
2. Is there a high obesity rate in your country?
No, It's less than 10%.
3. Why or why not?
Because Korean people eat Kimch and other vegetables almost
everyday and we don't eat a lot. We also like to exercise.
4. Are most people in your country well-educated or not? Why?
There are least percentage of illiterate people in Korea. I guess
it's because Korean parents think education as a very important
matter.
5. Is the life-style in your country different from the life-style in the United States? How?
Yes. I used to play a lot with my friends in Korea, but I have to
study english very hard in the U.S.
6. Who has a higher obesity rate, well-educated or uneducated people?
I guess American people have higher obesity rate. It's less than
10% in Korea, and more than 30% in the U.S. Also, Korean people are
more educated than people in the U.S because almost 99% of the Korean
can write and read their own language.
7. In the world, speakers of which language are most obese?
I am not sure, but I guess English speakers are most obese because
of the food they eat.

It's true that Korean people are more educated than people in the U.S. I think that the general education for American people is not high but the higher education (university, etc.) is good. That's why the U.S. has a lot of Nobel prize winners but a lot of people who can't even spell correctly. We need better public education. That would also reduce obesity.
